    I hav a problem accessing a certain website which 3 weeks ago was available on this computer.
    I can.t get to it anymore. But I can access it using another computer. Have tried turning off firewall and antivirus programs but still can't access it.
    The site is " freestockcharts.com".
    Are there any hints as to what settings might keep me from this site.

    it would be just guesses. Your browser has blocked the site. You accidentally disabled the plugin for silverlight. You changed your security settings. Your firewall isn't allowing the site through since the site's recent update.

    Try this from the command prompt -
    (Start orb > Run > type in cmd > Enter > type in ipconfig /flushdns > Enter )
    May possibly be a bad entry in the cache.

    I have this issue too, when I type in the address the page loads & says done very quickly, but the webpage is blank.. how often is Yahoo not up? Yet if I went to my.yahoo.com it would come up. I did a flush dns, nada.. then I had a chrome plug in that I disabled and it fixed most of the issues.
    It still happens occasionly, so I'll keep at it and let you knowwhat I find next.
